One Minute More

(album: Act One - 2006)

Can we pretend we feel alright one minute more
As you hold me underwater just one minute more

You've got a lot of nerve
You've got a lot of desire
Pretty young vampire
You've got a lot of love
But not a lot of direction
Creating this affection

I wanna make you bleed
Wanna make you see
I've got nothing to say for myself
You've got a lot to say never wanna listen
Oh

Can we pretend we feel alright one minute more
As you hold me underwater just one minute more
And when I take the breath that saves me
And I see you standing on the other side
I wake up screaming and confused
As our reckless worlds collide

Turn on
Tune in
Turn it upside down
If this is life
This is life
I don't wanna know

I took a lot of pills
I took a lot of chances
And failed romances
I threw my future away
I threw it all on the pass line
It's haunting me this time

My new reflection reveals rejection
My letters returned with your corrections
I've got a lot to hear
I don't wanna hear it
Oh
Could we pretend we feel alright one minute more
As you hold me underwater just one minute more
And when I take the breath that saves me
And I see you standing on the other side
I wake up screaming and confused
As our reckless worlds collide

Turn on
Tune in
Turn it upside down
If this is life
This is life
I don't wanna know

Turn on
Tune in
Turn it upside down
If this is life
This is life
I don't wanna know

Turn on
Tune in
Turn it upside down
If this is life
This is life
I don't wanna know
Turn on
Tune in
Turn on
Tune in
Turn on
Tune in
Tune in
Tune in

Can we pretend we feel alright one minute more
As you hold me underwater just one minute more
And when I take the breath that saves me
And I see you standing on the other side
I wake up screaming and confused
As our reckless world

Can we let chance burn into our eyes one minute more
As you strum my heart strings with a knife one minute more
And if my name should make it on the list
I'll see you on the other side
It's the color inside of my mind
As our reckless worlds collide

Turn on
Tune in
Turn it upside down
If this is life
This is life
I don't wanna know
